Awesome Tutor, Educational and Fun

Olson taught me all the tools I needed to know to execute my first project on Illustrator. I was able to complete my project in less than an hour after my class. Will keep going with Olson. I highly recommend this tutor.

Satisfied

Well satisfied with his method. Easy going and gets the instruction across. I did very well with the basics of this program. I enjoyed the time with him and hopefully studying with him again.

Very knowledgable, kind and patient

I had a wonderful experience working with Olson!! He took the time to show me how to use photoshop as a first time user. He was very patient and enthusiastic throughout the session. It was truly a pleasure working with him and I highly recommend reaching choosing him to assist you in any of his specialty areas. I appreciated the thoroughness he took to explain the most important aspects of the program in the time we had! What a great teacher!!

Natalie, 1 lesson with Olson

Extremely helpful, understanding and knowledgable about subject matter, across programs & platforms

The original plan was for Olson to teach me adobe illustrator. However, during the lesson, he taught me some details of Photoshop as well. We also had a long interaction prior to the class where Olson spent time assessing my needs and goals. So when we started the class, we had covered the ground already and the time was used doing actual work. He moved through the class very patiently and helped me cover an important assignment very quickly. In addition to the tools & details of illustrator, he also covered an important ground. The most important task, how to look at a motif and break it down to be able to make it on screen. The basics. Also, he not only showed me what to do and how to do, he made me emulate what he would do, so i could get comfortable as well as confident. I would recommend him. Thank you Olson!!
